Ellie Mccallum was the bully. The Tormenter.
The Villain. Taking what she wanted, stomping over anyone that got in her way.
Feelings, futures, and relationships be damned. She felt no emotional
connection to anyone or anything. A sad and lonely existence for a young woman
who had come to expect nothing more for herself. Her only happiness coming from
making others miserable.

Particularly Freaky Flynn.

Growing up, Flynn Hendrick was known only as
“Freaky Flynn.” He lived a life completely disconnected even as he struggled to
become something more than that boy with Asperger's. He was taunted and teased,
bearing the brunt of systematic and calculated cruelty, ultimately culminating
in a catastrophic turn of events that brought Ellie and Flynn’s worlds crashing
down.

But then Flynn and Ellie grew up.

And moved on.

Until years later when their paths
unexpectedly cross again and the bully and the freak are face to face once
more.

When labels come to define you, finding
yourself feels impossible. Particularly for two people disconnected from the
world who inexplicably find a connection in each other.

And out of the wreckage of their tragic
beginnings, an unlikely love story unfolds.

But a painful past doesn’t always want to let
go. And old wounds are never truly healed…and sometimes the farther you try to
run from yourself the closer you come to who you really are.
